How to reduce hair fall, how to increase the hair density and how to get the clear and glowing skin? - #25997
Astha Tripathi
Earlier (3months ago) I was happy with my hairs as I was not facing the hairfall problem. But now I am facing hairfall issue and my hairs are also thin. I want to increase the density of my hairs. And my skin is clear, I don‘t have any acne but I have scars on my face. And there is no glow on my face.
Age: 24
Chronic illnesses: No
I don’t have any past issues
My periods are very normal (not even a cramp issue)
My diet is also good (4-5 chapatis)
I think my agni is also good (because i think i have the power to digest heavy foods too) but once in a month (rarely) i face acidity problem

HELLO ASTHA TRIPATHI,
You were doing fine, but now due to some recent change maybe diet, stress, sleep, or weather your body isn’t nourishing your hair properly. That’s why you're facing hair fall and thinning.
Your skin is clean (which is great!), but the scars and dullness mean your internal system is slightly dry or undernourished. We’ll focus on feeding your skin and hair from inside using food, herbs, and natural oil care.
(Hair + Face + Internal Support)
Morning (Empty Stomach):
1 tsp Amla powder + warm water
OR 1 tbsp Aloe vera juice + Amla juice mixed in ½ glass water
After Breakfast:
Bhringrajasava – 10 ml + equal water
Saptamrita Lauha – 1 tablet
After Lunch:
Chyawanprash – 1 tsp
Sukumar Ghrita – 1 tsp with warm water (improves absorption + skin
glow)
Night (Before Sleep):
Triphala Churna – 1 tsp with warm water
OR Brahmi Vati – 1 tablet if sleep is not deep or there’s stress
Hair & Skin External Routine (3–4 times/week)
Hair Oil Before Bath (leave 1 hour minimum):
Mix Bhringraj Taila + Neelibhringadi Taila (equal parts)
Warm it slightly and apply to scalp + hair length
Massage for 10 mins and tie loosely
Post-Bath Hair Rinse:
Boil 1 tsp Triphala in 1 glass water → cool → strain → final rinse water after shampoo
Use mild herbal shampoo (no harsh chemicals)
Face Pack (3 times/week):
Multani Mitti + Sandalwood + Rosewater
(For scars: Add 2 drops lemon juice OR turmeric pinch)
Keep for 15 mins, wash with cool water
Glow Tip:
Apply Kumkumadi Tailam (2–3 drops) at night on clean face
Massage gently and leave overnight
Food Tips:
Have 1 tsp ghee with every meal
Eat soaked almonds (4–5) + black raisins (5–6) every morning
Avoid eating dry, spicy, or packaged food often
Add more iron and protein: spinach, beetroot, dal, moong, methi, jaggery
(if not done in past 6 months):
CBC
Vitamin D3
Vitamin B12
Serum Ferritin (for iron stores)
TSH (if hair fall persists despite all care)
Start this for 21 days sincerely, and your hair density and face glow will start showing up again.
If you have any doubts, you can contact me.
Take care,
Regards,
DR.Karthika

HELLO ASTHA,
You mentioned
-hairfall and thinning started recently
-facial scars - no acne currently
-skin looks dull, no glow
-good digestion overall, but occasional acidity
- normal menstrual cycle, no chronic disease
From an ayurvedic perspective, your body is basically healthy, but there are a few early imbalances developing in your doshas(natural energies) and dhatus(body tissues)
UNDERSTANDING HAIRFALL AND THINNIG
Ayurveda says hair is a byproduct of bone tissue(asthi dhatu) and is nourished by blood(rakta) and plasma(rasa dhatu)
THERE ARE 3 REASONS FOR YOUR HAIR ISSUES
1) PITTA IMBALANCE= pitta is the energy of heat and transformation. When it increases due to stress, late nights, spicy foods or sun exposure, it can overheat the scalp, causing inflammation in hair roots-> hair starts falling
2) VATA AGGRAVATION= vata controls movement and dryness . if vata is high, it dries out your scalp, making hair brittle and thin
3) WEAK NOURISHMENT TO HAIR TISSUES= even if you eat healthy, your tissues may not be absorbing nutrients properly due to mild digestive weakness or minor toxin buildup-> hair roots dont get full nutrition-> thinning
UNDERSTANING SKIN SCARS AND DULLNESS
1) RAKTA DHATU IS SLIGHTLY IMPURE
-even though your digestion feels good, small amounts of toxins can build up in the blood due to occasional acidity, poor sleep, or environmental factors-> this causes scars or marks on the skin
2) OJAS(ITAL GLOW) IS LOW
-Ojas is the essence of good health. when Ojas is low due to stress, tiredness, irregular sleep, or dehydration, your skin looks tired or dull, even if there's no acne
3) NO FRESH NOURISHMENT TO SKIN CELLS
-your outer skin depends on the health of your rasa(plasma) and rakta(blood). If these aren't being refreshed properly, healing slows down-> old scars stay longer and skin loses its natural shine
AYURVEDA AIMS TREATMENT TO
-Cool and nourish your body internally
-purify your blood to reduce scars and clear skin
- strengthen digestion -to improve nutrient absorption
-adopt a gentle rouitne= including massage, yoga, diet, and medicines)
MANAGEMENT PLAN
1) HAIRFALL AND LOW DENSITY

Diet and Lifestyle
Pathya: Fresh fruits, fresh vegetables, nutritious food, adequate sleep
Apathya: Avoid salt, sugar, tobacco, and alcohol. Overconsumption of salt and sugar increases dandruff and hairloss. Avoid large amounts of vitamin A.
Avoid strong soaps, shampoo or hair sprays. Only use mild castile soaps. Hats and wigs are apt to cause hair to fall out faster, since they limit the air to the scalp.
Avoid tension, stress, worry and hurry.

To address hair fall and increase hair density, it’s important to understand your dosha, as imbalance may impact hair health. For most cases, it's Vata and Pitta that are culprits. Include a diet rich in proteins, omega-3 fatty acids, and iron. Almonds, walnuts, flaxseeds, and sesame seeds will be beneficial. Drink amla (Indian gooseberry) juice daily in the morning which nourishes the hair follicles and promotes growth. Applying Bhringraj oil regularly to your scalp can help; gently massage it in circular motions, then leave it overnight or at least for a few hours before washing it off with a mild herbal shampoo.
For skin, given the presence of scars but absence of major acne concerns, focus on regeneration and pitta balancing. Include turmeric and neem powder in your diet. Fresh aloe vera gel can be applied directly on scars; leave it for about 20 minutes before rinsing off. To add glow, consider making face pack with sandalwood powder and rose water, it cools the skin and gives a glow. Drinking lots of water and a few tulsi leaves or rose petals soaked overnight also aid in enhancing glow.
Avoid excessive caffeine and spicy, oily foods that disrupt your body's balance. Daily Pranayama, especially alternate nostril breathing, is excellent for maintaining overall stress which might be affecting your hair and skin.
Consult a healthcare professional if symptoms persist or worsen to ensure there aren't underlying nutritional deficiencies or health concerns. A balanced approach through these dietary, lifestyle and topical measures should aid in improving your hair and skin health over time. Keep consistent with these practices for at least few months to see noticeable results, as both hair and skin regeneration takes time.
